lyrics
Treading the lifeless expanse of the skoria,
to a hollow of the earth
provident winds lift the sands
to unmask remains of strange artifice
abodes are these, or vessels?
The grave markers of the ghosts of this land.
Revered myths
in unmoving judgement their making stands
bellowing in the deeps and darkest places.
We, cast-off and wandering
the arid spaces orphaned by the tide
abandoned here too, huddling by hearth
in crude encirclements,
haunted by those unseen eyes.
Their temples are the looming mountains
life, begat of eroding downpour.
Descended from those higher,
invoked with mere nameless rage.
Bearing upon us in ubiquity fore the sightless.
The outer corporeal, temporal shield
withers and scatters as flesh
destiny then, only subsidence
to rejoin the foregone in dirt.
Yet before us reigned masons of the outer expanse,
farseers and sojourners amongst the lights of worlds.
Here, upon a drifting island in the infinite swarth
left with a sole sardonic keepsake
two hollows with which to behold
and all-consuming lust for sight.

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

Otherworldly psychedelic guitar tone of wah-wah melo-riffing shines here. Unique sound. Unique avant-blackened-death band. Must have... Along with Veilburner - the best bands in genre Dmitry Nevozhay

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal
Suffocating black metal in the Swedish style that mercifully throws in a bit of melody to save the listener from total darkness. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 29, 2017
Tempering death metal riffs with goth rock melodies, the Finnish outfit deliver a commendable, unsuspectingly catchy slab of fury. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 29, 2023

This is my favorite album by Mexican death metal stalwarts The Chasm, by a wide margin. All the meandering, proggy excursions of previous releases have been brutally curtailed in favor of mountains on mountains of riffs, and the result is a release that is tighter and more focused than any of their output in the last decade+.
Consider my interest renewed. Patiently awaiting the next one. Ghuughra
